I love them just cooked, straight from the broth.

It’s interesting how differently countries handle these types of things. Where I live one can be authorized to order prescription drugs for others in mail. So I order ADHD medicine for my partner once in a while since it’s less bother for me. And I get free shipping for whatever else I am ordering in the same shipping due to increased cart value. The package is delivered in my mailbox, no signature, no hassle.

In addition to what you’ve mentioned, in my country if you have a government job doctor appointments count as work. And works days are 7.75 hours a day in winter and 7 in summer, including lunch.

It’s interesting how different work environments, laws and rules can be as to influence or assumptions. Where I live lunch breaks are always paid, so I was appalled by your comment. Until I read the last part. Shows how easy it is to take stuff for granted and that we always have to push back.

I was about to say it’s easier to wash tiles that a rug, but realized “out off sight, out of mind” is probably the actual strategy here.

Why would you want a piss rug in the first place?

Yeah, in Scandinavia you just say “you” or use a person’s name when referring to somebody else. Or their job title if it fits the context. You can really feel that you’re not “below” anybody, we all deserve the same level of respect and the language reflects that. Additionally, you don’t need to guess anybody’s gender if you’re not sure, avoids uncomfortable situations.

My best effort explanation: Z-ah-i-on-ts, “i” as in “fit”.

Shrek 2.

B-but Scrubs’ musical episode was great!

I sometimes buy used stuff from people and drive to their houses to get the items. I was surprised to find out that while Google maps was very outdated on more recent buildings and neighborhoods, Organic maps and Mapy were all correct. Sometimes a whole street was missing and I struggled to find the way, so I stopped using it.

Transit is tough if you don’t have options though. The official transit app for my city is leagues better than Google so I’ve never had a reason to look elsewhere.

*seating, not sitting 😄

We have free sitting at our office, so I sit in different floors throughout the workweek and sometimes get “the bad chair” if all the good ones are taken. It sucks. I would rather be in a cubicle.

I read it as"Call of Duty Trump sycophants", which is probably as fitting.

Hell yeah, ethical Plex guy!

I have a Plex guy. He runs a server and invites anyone he considers a friend, but also gives access to most who ask. He has a giant rig that costs him a lot in electricity bills. But he doesn’t mind and doesn’t want any money, because he’s a sweet person and it’s just something he does.

Edit: I’m in Europe; also he always honors requests.

I didn’t ask AI to generate new icons, but to extract SVG code from individual icons wee decided to use and migrate my existing icon components to the new SVG code. It’s monkey work and I wanted to see if it could manage.

Well, the “mówić” part is not present, the root of the word is more similar to “niemy”, meaning “mute”; the Polish word comes from “non-speaker”, as in “not speaking at all”. but that’s just speculation on my part, I’m no linguist or etymologist 🤷‍♀️

Oh, absolutely. Some coworkers don’t understand it though.

They keep on doing it because it’s an addictive substance and/or as a form of self harm, unfortunately. Benadryl is very cheap and easy to get, so troubled teenagers try it looking for a break from reality, thinking hallucinogens are all similar. Then they often get stuck taking it every day, destroying their health. It’s very sad.
